Lucas 15
Jerome · Comentário Patrístico (catena)
Lucas 15:29
[(as quoted by Aquinas, AD 1274)] (in Ep. 21. ad Damasum.) Or he says, Thou never gavest me a kid, that is, no blood of prophet or priest has delivered us from the Roman power. — Catena Aurea by Aquinas
Lucas 15:29
[(as quoted by Aquinas, AD 1274)] (ubi sup.) Or, in another way, all justice in comparison of the justice of God is injustice. Therefore Paul says, Who shall deliver me from the body of this death? (Rom. 7:24.) and hence were the Apostles moved with anger at the request of the sons of Zebedee. (Matt. 20:24.) — Catena Aurea by Aquinas
Lucas 15:30
[(as quoted by Aquinas, AD 1274)] (Ubi sup.) Now in that which he says, Thou hast killed for him the fatted calf, he confesses that Christ has come, but envy has no wish to be saved. — Catena Aurea by Aquinas
Lucas 15:31
[(as quoted by Aquinas, AD 1274)] (ubi sup.) Or after having said, "This is boasting, not truth," the father does not agree with him, but restrains him in another way, saying, Thou art with me, by the law under which thou art bound; not as though he had not sinned, but because God continually drew him back by chastening. Nor is it wonderful that he lies to his father who hates his brother. — Catena Aurea by Aquinas
